bob-c Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 <p>What a great start to this week's POW. Oshiva, thought for sure that was a drill just couldn't imagine what it was going into. Thanks for the explanation, nice work as always. Ben, sure looks pleasant there. Chune-Hoong, I like both shots very much, especially the first. Well, with my K10d still in the shop, I have been spending some time (one could say too much time) playing in Photoshop. So here are three shots taken fairly recently.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jptreen Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 <p>Nice shots guys - am in love with that fake snow, really subtle. The 'drill' is also standout for me...</p> <p>One of a friend I shot on Friday...<br> <img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3323/3279614464_a48b057014.jpg?v=0" alt="" width="426" height="500" /></p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaophotography Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 <p>Great pictures as usual.<br> The first two are from an assignment that I'm supposed to have done and turned in by Monday morning. The assignment was to shoot hands doing something. So here's my interpretation of it.</p> <p>Pentax K200d, Pentax 50mm F/1.7@3.5</p> <p> </p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garry_young1 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 <p>Wow, nice stuff. Will comment later.</p> <p>I took a stroll through a local Confucian temple. Here are some shots:</p> <p>The first is a temple eave detail:<br> <img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3195/3280873069_65871f51fe.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="500" /><br> Pentax K20D, Tamron 17-50 f2.8</p> <p>Second is a flower (Yeah I know, a flower, - shoot me later!):<br> <img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3481/3281692898_a89f84a4a0.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="500" /><br> Also Pentax K20D and Tamron 17-50 f2.8</p> <p>And lastly a dramatic sky and temple eave: I loved the clear air that day - could actually see the clouds clearly. The black and white conversion is deliberately dramatic to draw out the contrasts evident to me on that day:<br> <img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3251/3281691510_c7b6c06d36.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="344" /><br> Also Pentax K20D and Tamron 17-50 f2.8.

ahanna Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 <p>I’ve been inside the last 3 days or so with a bug. By Saturday morning, I really wanted to take some photos, spending time on the Pentax photo gallery website only made it worse.<br /> At breakfast yesterday I decided to find a subject in the house to explore. I’m slowly learning that interesting photos are made as often as presented. It seems like a novel perspective can work as well as a novel subject. Of course it is better to have both.<br /> I was roaming around the house trying to put my recaptured insight to work and heard intermittent scratching in the office, I thought was coming from the walls. After a couple of minutes trying to chase down the noise, I looked up and saw this strange pattern in the snow on the skylight.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahanna Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 <p>A few seconds later I had my answer, some robins were having a bit of fun. I’ve never seen anything like this before, but I think they were using the skylight as a slide.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahanna Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 <p>It only lasted a few minutes as the sun had come out and was making short work of the snow. But I was happy to get both a novel perspective and subject.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shots worth sharing Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 <p><strong>Dorus</strong> , it seems to me Spoon in Cappuchino is one of those fine images that suffers from the need for explanation. <strong>Ben</strong> , I like the way you brought in a lot of foreground in the complosition of the bridge crossing. I really like that mini-dragon and dragon's tail , <strong>Chune</strong> ! That heron is really interesting, <strong>Robert</strong> --is it a juxtaposition or did you really get the moon behind the bird? I like that golf-ball shot, <strong>Bob</strong> --maybe try other crops? I hope your friend thinks that's a very funny photo <strong>John-Paul</strong> --because I sure do! Crappie fishermen are a strange lot, <strong>Ronnie</strong> --I've never figured out why that fish has such a cult-like following. Those are interestingly eerie photos but I like the Coke shot best. Number 1 gets my vote, <strong>Jon</strong> . I can see why that sunset distracted you: its a sweet shot. I'd crop off some of the bottom (but I have a deserved reputation as a cropping butcher.) I like the orchid, <strong>Garry</strong> --fair warning to prepare for floral OD as spring arrives and I do like the contrasting textures in that last shot. <br> I spent some time out with the DA*300mm looking for signs of spring this week but didn't find much. What I did find was leaves being blown into a stream. I wish I had done better by this one in the way of dof but I like the shape and feel of it</p> <div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shots worth sharing Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 <p>I'm not really all that happy with this photo but I do love these communities of moss & lichen--reminiscent of barnacles, seaweed and coral on underwater pilings. </p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael_elenko Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 <p>Wow, I see that the bar has been raised significantly this week with more to come!<br> In the spirit of strong colors, I'll submit my favorite shot taken in downtown Seattle this week with the DA 35mm Ltd.<br> <img src="http://www.smugmug.com/photos/474088218_HKhZH-L.jpg" alt="" /></p> <p>ME</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob-c Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 <p><b>Dave</b>, yes, the moon was inserted into the picture behind the Heron. The moon shot was actually taken on Christmas morning, 2007, over Haverford College. The heron was shot in Nov. of last year, and I added the blue-black gradient layer. I like your first leaf shot. <b>Andrew</b> those bird shots are awesome!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
